ak_petey 's blazer upgrade - stage 1

[ChevyKev]

first thing I would like to do is run a pressure test. I dont have the tools to do this or know how to do it. I have heard its pretty easy from folks.

Are you meaning a compression test? I have the adapter/gauge to do this.

I would like to skip the "tuning" and go for the better engine build. However, I would like to keep it fuel injected if possible. Any ideas on this one kevin?

"Skip tuning and go for a better engine build" ummm. I think you misunderstood my post.

Tuning is for the computer.

The computer is tuned to the standard performance of the stock engine.

If you rebuild the engine for more horsepower (which is what I was suggesting) then the computer thinks something is wrong with your stock engine... thus WHEN you rebuild the engine for more hp, you will then need to tune the computer to understand the new things it is seeing from your now non-stock engine.

In other words, your stock computer will not understand your built engine. So your engine build and computer need to match.

Does that make sense?
